If you want to impress a date, the last thing you want to do is leave your phone on the table while you're together. But if you really want to make a good impression, perhaps you could break out this handkerchief? The Phonekerchief is a sweetly embroidered handkerchief that wraps around your phone, letting your companion know that your cell is, in fact, off for them. But here's the real win: the handkerchief is made of material that actually blocks out the phone's signal, so it's truly unable to receive a call.
Besides wooing a date, this could come in handy during an important meeting, or even when you're just trying to take a nap. Cute, functional idea, but is it on the market?

But what's not needed is the emanating heat and uncomfortable ear position that comes from using a cell phone for too long (especially an iPhone). That's where the Earos Cell Phone Cushion comes in. This simple device attaches to your handset and provides much-needed respite for your ear. As an added bonus, flipping it to the other side provides a little ledge for tilted viewing position. Sounds great, but is it real or fake?

Just in time for the stormy weather to arrive, this umbrella takes rain protection to a whole new (geeky) level. Molded after a Star Wars Imperial Star Destroyer, it keeps your head dry but folds up just like any regular ole parasol.
Amazing design, but tell me — is it real or fake?
